Here is the problem : v.out.xfig draw at a "1" scale, and does
not verify wheter at this scale the document will fit or not
on an A4 sheet of paper !

Use 100 in your test file and you will see the drawing

For the other files, use v.digit to change the scale.

BTW, I think that the "SCALE" of a vector map has nothing to do
with the print scale, which should be a parameter of v.out.xfig
